Posted on by

2023 PREMIERS | U16 GIRLS

Another huge congratulations to our U16 girls for taking out the 2023 Premiership against SBL/Mitcham. What an incredible effort to hold their composure after a draw at full time, going on to win the match during extra time. You have worked so hard this season to earn this reward!

A shout out to all the parents, friends and volunteers who have contributed to the girl’s success this year, including their coach Danny Weston, Assistant Coach Chloe Timms, Team Manager Alex Toomey, Runner Amanda Cellante and the rest of the Women’s Squad who have enjoyed training with the girls at times throughout the season and turned up in great numbers to support the girls.

A very special thank you to our jumper sponsor Awesome Conveyancing for their ongoing support of our junior program and our club as a whole.

Also, a big thanks to Eve John from Bendigo Bank FTG Community Bank Knox Group for organising banners for each of the finalists!

2023 PREMIERS | U14 BOYS

A massive congratulations to our U14 Boys for taking out the 2023 Premiership against Lysterfield. The Boys came away with an impressive win, topping off a successful season where they finished on top of the ladder after the home and away season.

A shout out to all the parents, friends and volunteers who have contributed to the boy’s success this year, including their Coach Deacon Kimmitt, Assistant Coach Peter Kimmitt, Assistant Coach Adam Ferguson, Team Manager Victoria Butler and Runner Mackenzie Foster.

Another big thank you to our jumper sponsor Awesome Conveyancing for their ongoing support of our junior program and our club as a whole. And to Eve John from Bendigo Bank FTG Community Bank Knox Group for organising the grand final banners.

RUNNERS UP | U12 GIRLS

Our U12 Girls had a great season and unfortunately finished as Runners Up after being beaten in the Grand Final by North Ringwood.

Well done to all of the girls for their efforts this year! A big thank you to their Coaches Dave and Sharna Armstrong, Team Manager Natasha Parker and all of the families, friends and volunteers who supported the girls throughout the season. Also thanks to jumper sponsor Awesome Conveyancing and Bendigo Bank FTG Community Bank Knox Group for the team’s Grand Final banner!

A Message from Flash

Posted on by

The entire BHFNC should be mighty proud of its efforts over the past four weeks of hosting the Division One finals series.

The EFNL and competing clubs were lost for words in their gratitude for the organisation and efforts of our many, many volunteers over the month!

Headed up by Murra, our team worked cohesively and the many long days will now hold our club in greater financial strength as we move forward to our 2023 season.

To our early morning set up teams, to our bar teams, our burger teams, and canteen ladies, our traffic controllers, and our hlepers who kept carrying out stock to all the various tents, what an effort. In the coming few weeks we will be having a pleasant Sunday afternoon of thanks to all our helpers, I’ll get that date and time locked in ASAP.

Once all the bills are paid, we hope to announce our profit as it’s important all volunteers understand just how meaningful it is to the club to give so much of their time over the past four weekends.

Behind the scenes, we are working most nights to speak with potential recruits, plan our pre-season, reflect with trainers, and work diligently to ensure 2023 is an amazing year for the Hawka! Our coaches in all areas are now appointed and we hope you can all join us at one of our two presentation nights to properly give thanks and gratitude for this season.

Sincerely, thank you once again!!!

GREG HANNON, Senior President, BHFNC

Senior President’s Update

IMG_8811

To say our season for the senior men has been a roller coaster would be an understatement.  Thankfully, nearly all our injured players are back on the field and, with three games to go, we should have close to a full list vying for a senior game come finals!

It would be great if as many supporters as possible get down to ‘The Hawka’ over the next two weeks to give our teams an extra boost leading into their finals campaigns.

Our senior women’s team kick off at 8:20am this Saturday for their final home and away match of the season, before they commence their first finals campaign at Mulgrave on 18 August.  Special thanks must go out to Lace and Snicko (Ray Lacey and Scott Nicholas) for doing a tremendous job coaching our growing list of female players. We began with 9 women last year, but they have built that up to well over 30 this year.  With two junior girls teams, who knows where we will be in season 2020!

20190629-186A4374

After the senior game last Saturday, the Mulgrave rooms were just full of Boronia people. Probably 80% Boronia in their homerooms!! The senior umpire said to me; ‘The culture you have at Boronia is just amazing.  You have Panda, the Krenn’s at every game and people like Bomma running Coterie – it’s incredible!’  And he is right!

Our 19’s have been incredible with up to 5 eligible players playing senior football in recent weeks!  Our Development team is on top and our senior team is half a percentage point off top spot too! Without getting ahead of ourselves, the Club is well placed to have a fair dinkum crack come finals time!

20190721_328

Unfortunately, our two netball teams, Hawks and Brown will be hard pressed to play finals this season with only 2 games to go.  The Hawks in Premier Division have won 4 games from 11, with 4 thrillers decided by 4 points or less.  The “Brownies” have suffered from injuries all season and have only managed 2 wins so far.  On a brighter note, over 30 players have played netball with the Club this season, including a number of “cross overs” from our women’s footy team who are happy to double up for the weekend!

The Vets finished their season under lights in the wilds of South Belgrave last Friday.  The boys kicked on to celebrate the end of their season in fine style, because they played some great footy during the year and welcomed many new players to the Club.  Thanks to Joey, Jason and the boys for another great season.  Success will come!

20190526-186A2604.jpg

Off the field, our new lights get installed at Tormore Reserve this week.  This is a most exciting development and will give our Club incredible flexibility when fixturing matches in future years.  Special thanks to Woody (Kristan Wood) for facilitating this project.  In addition, much work has been done behind the scenes to secure funding for a facility upgrade in the next 2 to 3 years.   We hope to have some meaningful announcements in the coming months!

Please get behind Murra (David Murrihy) and support our finals hosting program.  This is equivalent to a major club sponsorship and we need as many volunteers as possible to make this work!

20170916-186A0477

We have the Presidents Lunch with Matthew Richardson, which is completely sold out, on August 17 and the vote count night after our last match of the season!  The senior Awards Night is on 4 October and DOES NOT clash with the Vet’s Footy Trip!

The next 7 weeks could be ‘crazy’ busy but get involved and cheer loudly!!

Go Hawka!

2019 Senior Football Finals Schedule

Posted on by

Start sorting out your diary for August and September as we head towards EFL and ERWFL Finals!

In a nutshell, we have four weeks of Division 1 finals at Tormore Reserve; the senior men are aiming to compete in Division 2 finals at East Burwood; the senior women at Mulgrave; and the Veterans at Lilydale.

The Club has a proud record of hosting finals over many years.  This is made possible by two things: the superb facilities and playing surface of Tormore Reserve; and the fantastic support of our volunteers who run the match days so seamlessly.  We are now asking for volunteers to step forward and offer their help for this year’s final series.  

If you can help out in any way during the finals at Tormore please contact Greg Hannon on 0438 616 139, David Murrihy on 0418 542 337, Ellen Johnson for BBQ & Canteen on 0407 672 816 or Ellisa Schmidtke on 0417 593 884.

Things we need to to cover include:

  • traffic control and car parking;
  • car boot alcohol inspections at the gate;
  • canteen and kitchen assistants;
  • bar staff at two outside bar tents – must have RSA accreditation;
  • BBQ cooks and helpers for two / three BBQ tents;
  • delivering supplies to bars and BBQ’s.

** EFL passes for volunteers to gain no-cost admission to the ground will be available for collection from the Clubrooms after 7:00pm on Thursday nights during the finals.
